🎣Fishing Fun Friday🎣

It’s not all work and no play here on the Mighty DOLPHIN… Not only do we protect the abundant natural resources here in the gulf, we also get to enjoy them a little bit too!

Here are just a few example of the luck we have had the past couple months. Don’t worry, we follow a strict catch and release policy on board! We thank our fish friends for the enjoyment they brought us and then send them back to their undersea home.

🦐 in the words of Forest Gump, Shrimp are the fruit of the sea 🦐

A large part of our time underway is spent conducting Living Marine Resource enforcement through out the Gulf of Mexico.

Sh*****ng is a critical component of the economy through the gulf, and we play a key role in sustaining the health of the fishery. When on board, not only do we check fishing gear and catch but also safety and survival gear. Each boarding is unique, and we love the chance to interact with our local maritime community.
